Marcus: The Batman Begins trailer is up. Ooh, dark.
Justin:
No way, another decent Batman movie, I thought the day would never come. Here's a question though: why do people otherwise insist on buying the rights to The Dark Knight and always turn him into some gay Kitsch story? jesus Hollywood is full of ponces. The crap 60's series, and all Batman movies after the first two - no, scratch that, even the first to were an interesting juxtaposition of dark gothic imagery versus the camp. Why though? The comics aren't like that. Why? Tell me why??? Anyway, there are some decent stars in this - "Don't you point your bloody Batarang at me."
Marcus:
Wish I knew. The Adam West 60s Batman was definitely in a camp world of its own. They always seemed to show it as early morning kids' TV when I were a nipper, especially in school holidays - not any more though eh? I reckon Christian Bale could well be the best Batman since Michael Keaton - he showed promise in Equilibrium.
